I Am Secure lyrics

My room looks out to the wide open spaces My heart is touched by awakening faces I see the panic of people in motion I can stand here, look out on an ocean. I am a wall awaiting a catchword. I see the city laid out like a patchwork. Alone I am free from hatred and blindness I hope that this life is frozen and timeless. My man is here, we grow old by inches. Tomorrow I'll walk among heroes and princes. I feed the boys, I hear secrets whispered. I know the hearts that are battered and blistered. I am secure In this world of apartheid. This is my cell, but it's connected to star - light.
